Lyrics

Just a small-town girl

Livin' in a lonely world

She took the midnight train goin' anywhere


Just a city boy

Born and raised in South Detroit

He took the midnight train goin' anywhere


A singer in a smokey room

The smell of wine and cheap perfume

For a smile they can share the night

It goes on and on, and on, and on


Strangers waiting

Up and down the boulevard

Their shadows searching in the night


Streetlights people

Livin' just to find emotion

Hidin' somewhere in the night


Workin' hard to get my fill

Everybody wants a thrill

Payin' anything to roll the dice just one more time


Some will win, some will lose

Some were born to sing the blues

Oh, the movie never ends

It goes on and on, and on, and on


Strangers waiting

Up and down the boulevard

Their shadows searching in the night


Streetlights people

Livin' just to find emotion

Hidin' somewhere in the night


Don't stop believin'

Hold on to that feelin'

Streetlight people


Don't stop believin'

Hold on

Streetlight people


Don't stop believin'

Hold on to that feelin'

Streetlight people
